Mistaken for "a skunk.

A Nebraska farmer named Hiram
Schoonover, whose melon patch has been
subjected to nocturnal raids, watched last
Sunday night with a musket loaded with
b uckshot. Hearing q noise in an adjoin-
ing corn field he turned his artillery loose
and succeeded in bagging his mother.in.
law, Mrs. Mary J. Sloss, aged 67 years.
She had been gathering green corn for the
table. Schoonover claims that he mis-
took his mother.in-law for a skunk. He
bears a fair reputation. but his story is
hardly believed as there are stories
Of family trouble. Mrs. Sloss wanted her
will drawn recently, as she was afraid that
schoonover would kill her. and she did
not want TO leave any property to him.

The 81 Nugget.

At the Bank of Murray may be seen q
nugget recently taken out of one Of the
few placer claims, which are now being
worked, which weighs SO ounces 4 pvt
and 10 grains. Being over four ounces
larger Than any heretofore produced in
the Ceur d'Alene placars. 1t is not al
smooth as most Of the large nuggets, ap
pearing to have been washed but o short
distance. The owner is unwilling to state
where 1t was found. As another proof o.
rich placer ground the exact location il
not important as there are several claims
which have given proof that 1t only need
work to bring out pleanty of gold and oc
cassionalIy a big chunk. It would no
surprise us TO see a ten FOUNDER any day.

a .oOD woRD FOR NEVADA.

The San Francisco Alta has these
words of cheer for Nevada:
The Surveyor General of Nevada, in
his annual report, has reviewed the re-
sources of that State and their present
prospective utility as sources of wealth.
The report places Nevada in a more
favorable light than heretofore. for it's
nickname, the "Sagebrush State" has
given the East a wrong impression. II
the officers estimate is correct, and
q, 900 square miles may be brought into
tillage by the use of waste waters and
artesian wells for irrigation, a wealthy
and permanent population is implied.
The area is nearly half as large as Iowa;
it is five times as large as Connecticut,
ten times as large as Delaware, more
than twice as large as Massachusetts,,
New Hampshire or New Jersey, and
nearly twenty times as large as Rhode
Island.
Rhode Island has a population Of $780,.
600, and when one considers the resources
of Nevada, aside from those purely
agricultural, there seems tie be no reason
why it should not become q largely popu.
lated State. The mines of Nevada pro-
duced last year nearly $40, 600, 900, and
the stock interest nearly as much, SO we
=
can see no reason why the State should
not attract immigration and take high
rank. It is called a "rotten borough "
and subjected to unmerited abuse, which
it is time to resent.
The people who are there have held
the fort like brave frontiermen. It takes
about two generations of such to fix the
conditions and the clock is approaching
the hour of destiny for Nevada. An &C.
cession of population means not only the
development of her agricultural re.
sources, but Of her mines and stock in.
terest.

region, about IA miles south OF here. on
account Of the discovery OF gold on Las
Tablas river. The find Ia about q mile
from the month Of the stream. The

ply rewarded. II is also reported that
paying ore has been found on Nacimento
river, some three miles from the Las
1'ablas mines.
